Notes
Scanned via a Fujitsu FI-7480 sheet-fed scanner using a disassembled issue of Computer Shopper by Jason Scott. Scanning settings kept all reading into TIFF formatted images at minimal additional processing (raw view of the scanner's element). The .ZIP file in this item contains those (large) unprocessed "RAW" files.
The images were then handed to Hubz of Gaming Alexandria, who has produced two versions of a compilation of these images: An "Aesthetic" (more reminiscent of the original newsprint pages of the magazine) and "Readable" (easier to read, higher contrast, better read by OCR technology). Artists and researchers in need of a specific page at maximum resolution should download the RAW .zip's contents as needed and work with the original files.

Subject: Some general notes to this project.
As of this writing, the Aesthetic version is not overly deskewed or cropped compared to the Readable version. This reflects the process as it stands and will encourage some changes to the process going forward. The original RAW scans will be added to this item shortly, in a ZIP file, allowing others to try different approaches to the materials as well.
